Venator-Class Star Destroyer

Greetings Lego fans; I’d like to introduce my scale model of the Star Wars Venator-Class Star Destroyer, a massive Republic warship depicted in Star Wars the Clone Wars, Revenge of the Sith, as well as the Clone Wars Cartoon Series! I’ve always loved the large scale models Lego comes out with, but at the same time I’ve been disappointed that they’d never come out with my favorite warship (the Venator, or course!). So, I decided to design my own!
My model is composed of roughly 3,900 bricks and measures about 30 inches long. It features the main ship, a removable stand (the ship lifts right off), as well as a data sheet label I designed myself. I wanted it to be as realistic as possible, so I was sure to be extra-detailed. I used a lot of small translucent-blue parts to imitate the glow of the Venator from the movies, as well as using many smaller parts to try and capture the detailed aspects. I even included a detailed and fully-functional ventral hangar bay with a detachable scale model Republic Frigate. The color scheme is that of an Admiral's flagship (characterized by the dark-red bridges).
If Lego decided to produce this as a set, my guess is that it would be priced around $400 like the rest of the large Star Wars sets; however, likely some of the smaller parts/details would be eliminated, seeing as the Executor (10221) has 3,152 parts and costs $400. However, the sides on my ship are much more detailed than Lego decided to do with the Executor and there’s many more small parts, so I’m sure Lego could find some way to streamline the design and eliminate excess parts to bring the price down. Regardless, I think it would be awesome to have Lego producing s scale model Venator to go with the Executor and other large Star Wars ships.
Everyone please like this!! I’d really appreciate the support, and if everybody likes this, we could soon have scale-model Venator being sold by Lego and available to everyone! Thanks everyone in advance for your support!!
#this is NOT my project. this is on Lego ideas and if you like it support it!
